How’s this for timing …
Following on from the foaling of Sing
Halleluah’s full brother to Hay List last week, comes the news that Hay List is
back in work. Thoroughbred Express’ Karl Patterson tells the tale:
McNair welcomes back Hay List
Hay List is back in work and connections are
optimistic about his future.
The star sprinter is trained by John McNair
for the Davenport family and his spring carnival was cut short by a lingering
leg infection.
He is overdue for a trouble-free campaign
after extensive treatment at the Randwick Equine Centre: “Hay List is back in
light work,” Peter Davenport said on Tuesday. “He looks 100% and weighs about
640kg which is about 20kg above his fighting weight.”
Hay List (5g Statue Of Liberty - Sing Hallelujah
by Is It True) has raced five times this year for wins in the G2 Challenge
Stakes at Warwick Farm and G1 All-Aged Stakes at Randwick.
In the other three outings, he was runner-up
to Black Caviar in the G1 Lightning Stakes at Flemington, G1 T J Smith Stakes
at Randwick and G1 BTC Cup at Doomben.
Hay List has won 14 of his 20 starts
beginning with an unbeaten run of 8 wins in Perth. He travelled east to win the
G1 Manikato Stakes, G2 Gilgai Stakes, G3 Healy Stakes and G3 Ian McEwan Stakes
before bumping into Black Caviar.
The Davenports welcomed another addition to
the family when Sing Hallelujah foaled an impressive brother to Hay List at
Eliza Park last week.
“Mother and son are doing very well,” Davenport
revealed. “Little Hay, as we're calling him, was born 57kg and is super
correct. He’s a lovely foal.”
Besides Hay List, Sing Hallelujah has also
foaled the winners Gold Statue and Sound Of The Ocean. The mare with be bred
back to Black Caviar’s sire Bel Esprit at Eliza Park later this month.
